MONEY-SCHEDULIN G MACHINE.

Application filed January ,24, 1916. Seria1 No. 74,023.

' Z '0 all whom it may j concern.-

Be it-kno'wn that I, EDWIN L. KELLER, a citizen ofthe United States, and residing at St. Louis, Missouri, have invented'a cer- 5 tain new and useful Improvement in Money- 'Scheduling Machines, of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to ,machines for scheduling the denominations required 'to make up a given item, such as the scheduling of the required coins of 'difierentdenominations to make up a given sum.

In an automatic scheduling machine, the machine should be so constructed that by setting up on the key board an item or number, the mechanism will automatically divide that number into its denominations which are the least in number for the item or number set up on the keyboard, and,

therefore, into the largest possible denominations of that item or number. In such a machine, it is important that the denominator elements, whether registers or coin founts, should not require duplication, at

the same time, maintaining the key board simple and of large capacity. Accordingly in the ideal scheduling machine, there should be a decimal key board, together with only one denominator element for each denomination; and the mechanism controlled by the, keys and controllingthe operation of the denominator elements, should be such that when any number is set up on the key board, the mechanism should operate to automatically divide that num-\ ber into the" least number of denominations and of the greatest denominations.

In the decimal key board type of machine, the keys are arranged decimally and usually in columns of nine orten' keys, the columns representing units, tens, hundreds, etc. This is the ideal type of machine in that a small key board has a very large capacity.

Difficulty is, however, experienced in this 5 type of machine on account of the peculiarities encountered in the denominations of eX- isting systems of coinage, and we will take as an example the United States system, although the same pecularities are common Q to other systems.

The multiples of a dollar are integers with reference to the number and are represented by the dollar, tens of dollars, etc.,

on a decimal key board. No multiple of a dollar, (except where two dollars and a halt gold pieces are used, which is very rare) is anything but a simple integer multiple of the units and tens; Accordingly, the-units column of keyscau have a set of connections to its denominator elements and the sameis true of the tens, hundreds, etc.

When, however, we come to the denominations of a dollar, the conditions are different; while these denominations are mostly integer multiples. of units and tens of cents, such for instance, as 1 and 5: which are integer multiples of units and 10, and 50 Which are integer mulitples of dimes; in the case of a quarter, which is a fractional multiple of a dime, being represented, therefore, by a compound number, one component is'in the tens column and the other in the units column, so that this quarter is made up of both orders.

This quarter denomination occurs in all numbers from25 to 49 and 7 5 to 99; and it must. be obtained by the combined operation of a component or key in each ploying a decimal. key board and scheduling a number into denominations which are.

the least for that number, must, therefore,

be so constructed, and the keys must have such connections, that the 2, 3, 4, 7-, 8 and 9 keys in the tens columns Will-cooperate with the units keys, so as to select a quarter denominatorelement whenever required.

Furthermore, in order to schedule into the least number of denominations, the connections must be such that by the combined j operation of units and tens keys, a dime or two dimes must be obtained with a quarter, for instance, one dime with 35 to 44 and 85 to 94 and the twodimes with 45 to 49 and 95 to 99.

One of theobjects of this invention, there- .fore, is to provide a. scheduling machine,

Which has a simple decimal key board,

which will positively schedule any number into its denominations which are the least .for the number set up on the key board and one of which denominations is the greatest possible denominations for thatnumber.

,Another object is to provide a scheduling machine having a decimal key board,

in which the denominator elements do'not exceed in number the denominations chosen, so that, there is no duplication.

Another object is to 'providea scheduling machine in which the keys or selective manipulative elements are arranged for com bined operation to represent a compound item, and in which analysis mechanism is adapted, upon the. combined operation of.

selected manipulative elements, to automatically and positively select those select or denominator elements, which represent the denominations of the item represented by the operated keys.

Another object is to provide a scheduling machine in which the units andtens keysale adapted for combined operation to di- Vide the number set up thereby and automatically and positively select those select denominator elements, which represent the least number of denoi'ninations ot' the great and penny elements, must be arranged for both single and double step movements, and

the penny element must in addition have triple and quadruple movements: this is for the reason that in scheduling there may be required either one or two dimes and one, two, three or four pennies. It is, however, important that a machine of this type be so constructed that when a single step movement is desired, for instance. in'the case of a dime. there will not he accidentally obtained a double step movement, or in the case of a penny. a-triple or quadruple movement.

Another obj cct of this invention, therefore, is to provide a machine in which the operation oi": the select or denominatoii elements is positively limited and controlled in accordance with the selections made;"and more particularly wherehv when a certain step movement is desired: that no excess movement will be imparted to any select or denominator element.

in machines of this type as heretofore constructed. the selective manipulative elements or keys have been arranged to control or actuate either slides or ejectors. wh ch eject coins ot the denominations required to make up a given sum, or they have actuated corresponding; denomination counters.

As it is necessary that the selective ele-' ments select the select elements connected with the counters or eiectors, as the case may be, and as the denominations of the coins to make up given items vary considerably with these items, it is often necessary to switch in order to select the proper select elements. It, now, the mechanism is not positive in its operation, the result is liable to be inaccurate. Moreover, it is essential that the select elements be actuated by means extraneous of the selective elements, as otherwise too much effort by the operator is-required.

Another object of this invent-ion, thereforc. is to provide a machine of the type referred to which will. be positive in its operation, in which the elements will always be moved to a predetermined position, and in which the operating means is extraneous ot the selective elements.

Another object is to provide a machine of this type in which the selective elements operate to release the select elements, and in which the released elements are positively actuated and positively arrested inv prede termined positions.

Another objectis to provide a machine of this typein which the parts corresponding to a series are utilized for operation in another series, thereby reducing the parts required.

Another object is to provide a machine of this type which is simple in construction and operation, economical to manufacture, and durable.

Referring to the accompanying drawings, and more particularly, to Figures 1 to 12 inelusive, 1 designates a base which supports side frames 2,, 3, 4 and 5. Connecting the inside side frames 3 and 4: are a pair of plates 6 and 7. v i

The plates 6 and 7 are slotted to receive the shanks of a series of selective manipulative elements or keys 8. The key shanks are shouldered, as shown at 9, and each key is raised by means of a spring 10,-eonnected, at

one end, to the key, and, at the other end, to a cross bar 11 connecting the frames 3 and 4, so as to normally operateto hold the shoulders 9 against the top plate 6. Each key is provided .with a cross pin 12 for a purpose hereinafter to be described. Mountedon ears struck up from the plate 6' are pairs of arms 13, each pair of which are connected, at

their lower ends, to and support a link 14; having laterally bent lugs 15 adapted to. engage the shanks of the keys. Springs 16, connected to the top plate 6 and the link respectively, normally operate to move the links 14 to the right. Figure 7 so as to yieldingly hold the lugs 15 thereon in en gagement with theshanks on the keys. The lower faces of the shoulders 9 are beveled, so that when any key is depressed, the bevel will; cooperate with the .lugs 15 to move the link to they left, Figure 7,and' the lug will then snap over the shoulder to lock the key in depressed position, There are a series of arms 13 and links 14, one for each longitudinalrow of keys.

"Mounted on cross plates 3 and 4, and separated by suitable spacers 21, area series of select elements or register bars A B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I and J; Each register bar is connected to one end of a spring 23, the. other end of which is connected to a cross pin 24: mounted on a pair of links 25. The plates 3 and 4 are slotted, as shown-at 26, to permit the cross bar to work therethrough in connection with the links 25, which are positioned on the outer sides of the plates. ends of the links 25 are'mounted on the ends cross bar 27 working in slots 28 in. the

pilrt es 3 and 4, and passing loosely through slots 29 in the register bars AJ. These register bars have laterally turned lugs 30,

bars 20, connecting the The forward so Y as to provide for large bearing faces agamstthe crossbar 27. The springs 23 op:

crate to hold'the lugs 30in engagement with i the cross bar 27.

Each of the links 25 is, connected, at its rear end, to an arm 31 fixed to a shaft 32 shaft has fixed thereto amutilated gear seg- -ment 33 meshing with a mutilated gear segmounted in the plates 3, 4; and-5, and this ment 3 1 fixed to a, shaft 35. The, gear 'segment 34 isprovided with an arm 36having a pm 37working in a slot 38 in a link 39, and connected to arm 40 fixed to a shaft pivot pin 14 with the pin 37.

Each one-of the register bars A-J has a series of laterally turned lugs or stops 45, and each is connected to-a bell crank lever 16, loosely mounted on a shaft 32, and con-v nected by a link 48 with the pawl-carrier 19 4cl-mounted in the plates 2 and'5, and having of a registermechanism. Th"'e bell crank levers are heldin spaced relation by spacers 50. The. reglsters, which are shown in detail in Figures 11 and 12, are arranged in pairs,

but 'each is independently operated by its particular register bar. 'Eaeh pawl carrier 19 is loosely mounted on a cross shaft 51, and

.carries a pawl 52 en aging a ratchet 53 connected with a gear 5 1 which meshes with a pinion 55 of a register 56. Each gear 54: is

engagedby a stop pawl 57 and. held in en gagement therewith by a springi58.

The shaft 35 hashfixed thereto an arm or fingerfiO engaged by 'a pin 61 on a bell crank lever 62 loosely mounted on the shaft 35, and having an extension 63 connected by a. spring 6 1 to the base 1. Thefbell crank lever has pivoted at65 afinger'i6'6, the lower end of which is connected by a spring 67 to the bell crank lever, which spring operates to hold the pin 68 on the finger in engagement with the edge of the bell crank'leve a The upper end of the finger carries a pin 77 which adapted to engage a recess- 69 ,in an arm'7Q fixed to the end of the shaft-.71, in the frames 3 and 4;: The other-end o'ffithe shaft 71'has also fixed thereto an arm 72Teonnected by a spring 73 to the plate 4. The arms 70 and 7 2 carry a cross bar 74c," whi'ch projects through recesses 7 5' in the plates f3 and 4:, and is adapted to engage the arms f3 heretofore referred to. The free end of thearm 7 0 has a bevel face 76.

Forward movement of the "crank 42 against the tension of the spring-4221 will operate, through the arm 40 and thespring 13, to move the gear segment 34 in the ."direction of the arrow, Figuret. This movement ofthe gear segment 34 will move the igear segment 33 011 the shaft 32 in the direction ofthe arrow, and will, through the arms 31,

has been moved rearwardly to its limit, andis then released, the spring 421 will carry the crank and its shaft, together with the .connected links 25, back, and the cross bar 27' will restore the displaced register bars AJ back to original position. This will,

through the connections heretofore referred to, move the pawl carriers and theirpawls so as to operate and set the registers.

During the forward movement of the crank and its connected parts, the finger will move with the shaft inv the direction of the arrow, Flgure 5, and this will cause the spring 64: to move the bell crank lever 62 in the same direction, bu t the spring 73 has sufiicient strength so that the finger 66 will be swung on its pivot 65, so asto cause the pin 77 to snap over the hooked end of the arm 70, the spring 67 yielding during this movement. On the return movement of the parts, however, the finger 66 will be fixed to the lever 62 on account of the engagement of the pin 66 with the lever, and the pin 7? will, therefore, upon engaging the incline or bevel 76, swing the arm 70 and the rock shaft 71, thereby moving the cross bar 7a to the left, Figure 7, so as to, by engagement with the arms 13, shift the links 1 1 and release the keys. Upon the completion of the movement, the pin 77 on linger 66 will again snap into the recess 69, with the parts in .originalposition. A

A series of intermediate elements or release bars a, Z), 0, (Z, 9, 72,73, 7', is, Z, m, n, 0 and p, and a pair of shift bars 6 and f, are arranged along the machine between the plates 3 and't. Each of these bars is suspended from a pair of arms 80 and 81 loose,

on shafts 82 and 71 respectively which shafts are mounted in theplates 3 and l.

Each of the bars, with the exception of 0' and d, is provided with upwardly extending lugs 8 arranged in the path of the cross ins 12 .on the key shanks. Each of the liars a-p is connected by a spring 94 with a cross bar 95 connecting the plates 3 and 4:, so as to normally operate to move 'thebars to the right, Figure 15.

Referring to Figures 15 to 18 inclusive, the bars 0 and (Z have slidably mounted thereon bars a and d respectively, these bars 0 and 0Z being arranged for sliding movement by headed rivets on the bars 0 and d engaging slots in the bars 0 and d respectively. The arm 81, carrying the bar 7, has a part 85 provided with a pin. 86 engaging a lug 87 on the bar (Z and the latter is connected by a spring 88 to the bar d, so as to normally tend to move the bar d to the right, Figure 17, on bar d. The bar 0 has a downwardly projecting lug 89 having a pin 90 engaging a slot in a link 91'c0nnected to an extension 92 on the arm 80 carrying the bar 6, and a spring 93 connects the bar 0 with the bar 0, so as to normally tend to move the bar 0 to the right, Figure 15, on bar 0.

Referring to Figure 8, the shafts 82 and 71' have mounted loosely thereon hubs or sleeves 78 and 79 respectively. To the right ends of these hubs are fixed the arms 80 and 81 respectively, carrying the bar 6, and to the left ends of these hubs are fixed the arms carrying the bar 9. The bars 7) and 9 will, therefm'e, move in unison. The arms carrying the bars 0, (Z, 6 and f are loosely mounted on the hubs, and, like the arms carrying the remaining release bars, are separated by spacers. i

The forward ends of the register bars .A.I have laterally projecting lugs 96,

which are engaged respectively by pawls A, B, B 0, C C D, E, F, G, H, I and J.- These pawls are mounted upon a shaft 97 in the side plates 3 and 4:, and each pawl is actuated by a spring 98, connected, at one end, to the pawl, and, at the other end, to a cross bar 110 between the plates and 4. The pawls are connected with the arms 80 by suitable links 99, as shown more particularly in Figure 10, and as hereinafter more particularly described. The key shanks are provided with extensions 101 forming stops adapted to arrest the register bars A-J, but, in case of the bars F and I, the same are arrested by the stops and 103 on the plate 7. i

From the above it will be noted that the depression of any particular selective manipulative elements or key causes one of the intermediate elements or release bars ap to be depressed, and this raises or drops an appropriate pawl or pawls to release or look an appropriate select element or register bar or bars A-J, and the released register bar is then shifted, as pointed out herereturned, the lugs thereon will again snap under the pawls, and will be retained in retracted position. i

In accordance with this invention, the operation is such that, for a given item, the registers will automatically register, the coins 'of the largest possible denomination which, when added together, will give'that item. Below is given a table containing the different items and the coins of largest denomination required to fill-that item.

I The operations of the mechanisms to schedule the coins for the different items are as follows:

1 to M.

' will cause the depression of the release bar a to raise the pawl A, thereby releasing the penny register bar A. Actuation of the crank 42 will shift the released register bar A until the lug 4C5 thereon is arrested, by the shank stop 1010f the actuated key, in a position correspoiiding to the item set by the key. Upon return of the crank, the penny register a will be actuated to register the number of pennies corresponding to the actuated'key. It will be-noted, in this connection, that the first lug 45 (from the left) will be arrested by the shanks of the first two keys, while the second lug will be arrestedby the shanks of thethird and fourth keys, corresponding to one, two, three and four. spacesrespectively of the register bar.

Referring to Figures 18 and 14, it will be noted that therelease bar a has no lug 84. under the 5 1 key, while the release bar 5 only .has lugs under the keys 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9. Moreover, the pins 12 on the last four keys bridge the lugs on both bars a andb, Depression of ke 5 will depress release bar 5. and raise pawl B to release register barv B. The latter is, upon actuation oftl1e-crank,-arrested by engagement of, the stop thereon with the shank 5,1 and, upon return of the crank, the nickel register 5 will be actuated. Upon actuation of the higher keys 6 etc, both spectively. Thus, when the 7 key is depressed, the nickel register I) will register one, while the penny registera will register two. It will be noted that the 5 key has its shank elongated so as to always arrest the bar B upon its release, even though the key 5 is not depressed. This obviates duplication of lugs on this bar.

Referring to Figures 17 and 18, upon depression of the 10? key in the second bank, the release bar-h willbe depressed. This operates to raise the pawl C from the lug 96 of the dime register bar C. Now it will be noted that the shoulder on the pawl C is spaced rearwardlyv of the shoulder on the pawl 0 one space. Upon operation of the crank, therefore, the register bar C will be arrested by the pawl C after it has moved one space, thereby causing, upon return of the crank, the dime register 0 to be actuated to register one dime. Depression of any key in the penny bank will cause the penny and nickel registers to be registered as before.

Upon depression of the 20 key, the pin 12: thereon, which extends across the bar. 71. as well as the bar i',the latter having, in this case, a lug 84 in the path of the pin, depresses both bars so as to lift both pawls G and C ,'and entirely release the dime bar C. Upon actuation of the crank, the dime bar C will now be arrested by the engagement of the lug 4.5 thereon with'the shank of the 20 key, after the register bar has moved through two spaces, so that, upon return of the crank, the dime register will register two dimes. The operation of the penny bank of keys from 1 to 1 inclusive, will, of course, be the same as before.

Referring again to. Figures 17 and 18, it will be noted that the pin 12 on the 20 key also crosses the lug 8st on the shift bar 7, which, upon being depressed, swings the extension 85 on its arm 81 to the left, Figure 17, thereby moving the slide d to the left. This slide has a series of lugs 84; which, While normally out of register with the cross pins on the 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 keys in the penny bank, are, upon depression of the 20 key, through the connections described, shifted underneath the latter keys. Upon the depression of the 20 key and the the lugs 96 on the nickel and dime register bars B and C, and concurrently raise the pawl D on the quarter register bar D. The result is, therefore, that the nickel and dime bars are locked, while the quarter bar (and the penny bar in case a key higher than 5 is depressed) is released, so that, upon actuation of the crank, the quarter bar will be is actuated to register one quarter.

moved-through one space, the lug 4:5 thereon being stopped in any suitable manner, as by the shank on the 60 key. Upon return of 20 the crank, the quarter register (and the penny register in case the item is over The parts are, of course, restored to original position as before.

Referring to Figures 15 and 16, it will be noted that the cross pin on the 30 key bridges a lug 84 on a bar j, and also a similar lug on the bar g, so as to depress both of these bars. The depression'of the bar will, through the connect-inglink 99, raise the pawl D from the quarter register bar (both links having pin and slot connections with the pawl). Concurrently, depression of the bar will, through its arms 81 and 80 con nected by hubs78 and 79 to the corresponding arms 80 and 81 of the bar- Y), raise the pawl 13 from the nickel register bar. his will release both the quarter and the nickel register bars, so that, upon operation of the crank, the quarter and nickel registers will be operated to register a quarter and a.

nickel. Of course, the depression of the enny keys '1 to d in connectionwith the 30 key will release the penny register bar in connection with the quarter and nickel register bars.

Referring again to Figures .15 and 16, it will be noted that the cross pin on the 30 key also bridges the lug 84 on the shift bar 6. This shiltdvar, as heretofore described, operates, upon depression, 1'0 shift the bar 0 on the bar 0 so as to position the lugs 84: thereon under the cross pins on the 5 to 9 penny keys, so that, upon depres sion of one of the latter keys, the bar 0 will be depressed. Depression of the bar 0 will operate to lower the pawl B to lock the nickel bar and raise both pawls C C from the dime register bar. The result is, theretore, that the depression oi'the 30 key'and one of the keys 5 to -9 will cause the rethe pawl B from the nickel bar.

lease of the quarter bar, the release of the dime bar, and also the release of the penny bar in case a penny key higher than 5 is depressed. The second lug 15 on the dime bar will be arrested by the shank of the depressed 30 key, so that the latter will'he moved through one space upon actuation of w the crank. The registers will. therefore, be actuated to register one quarter, one dime. and the number 01 pennles over five.

arrested'by the pawl C and, through the bar g, the hubs 78 and'.79 and the bar I), raise The result is, therefore, that the quarter, dime and nickel register bars will be released, so that the corresponding registers will, upon movement of the crank, be actuated to register a quarter, a dime and a nickel. The penny register will, of course, be operated as before.

lheoperation is the same as described in 'the preceding paragraph, except that shift bar 0 is, in this-ease, operated as for 35 to 39, and except that the 10 register bar is, in this case, arrested by the 10 key, after moving two spaces, thereby registering two dimes. I

The operation is the same as in the preceding paragraph, except that the nickel and penny bars now come into play in the same manner as before.

I 60 to 64.

Upon reference to Figures 6 and 8, it. will be noted that the cross pm of the 00 key bridges a lug on'the 50 release bar 70 as well as the lug on the 10 release bar Ii.

' Operation of the key will, therefore, release both the 50 and the 10 register bars.

65 to 69. The operation is the same in this case as tion with keys 1 to at in the penny bank,

in the preceding paragraph, the nickel and penny bar coming in this case into play, so as to register a half, a dime, a nickel, and pennies.

Referring to Figures 6 and 8, it will bev noted that the 70 key has a cross pin which not alone bridges 2. lug, onthe half dollar release bar is, but also lugs 'on the dime release bars h and i. The depression of the 70 key, either aloneior 1n connec will, therefore, operate to release the half register bar E and dime register bar 0, which latter will, upon actuation of the crank, be arrested by the shank of the"70 key after the bar has moved two spaces, so as to register one half, and two dimes,and, of course, the proper number of pennies.
